It's impossible to catch either of the Ferraris now. They are too far and they are faster. At the moment Rusell is even faster. Pit stops done but still I don't see how Norris can catch any of the Ferraris.
Only hope is a safety car or mechanical issues for Ferrari. Too quick for us today
Hard to say, Norris surely damaged his tires with fighting Verstappen and then driving in his wheel tracks.

Solid job by Piastri so far, so that's positive.

If Oscar had the offset he can chase Max. The RB was poor on its tyres.

The Ferraris are better again here but it might have been a different race without Max sending us out of bounds two times.

Might be case of Lando saving his tyres for a late charge, as we've seen previously. Does feel like Ferrari have this in the bag though. Gaps have stabilised.

Any ideas of the next upgrades that will be coming? We need to get back being better.

Lando might be able to take P2 here. Ferrari tyres are going to drop off towards the end since we forced them to pit so soon. Hopefully Piastri can make it to P4 and limit the damage somewhat.

No chance Oscar even breaks the top 6, Ferrari have enough in hand here 3rd will be the maximum, but I hope I'm proved wrong

Oscar has too much to do here. I kind of feel it should of worked out better than this.

I think if it ends like this, we can be content. It's not ideal by any means but at least it is not catastrophic (for example if NOR and VER crashed).

As always, race was compromised by VER pushing us off allowing Ferrari a nice clean buffer.
